Be A Watermelon In This Video Game Using an Actual Watermelon Controller
Why did the watermelon cross the road? Because it was the protagonist in a linear video game trying to escape, of course.
Officially titled, The Story of the Revolutionary Watermelon That Wanted to Live Free as a Bird and Learned How to Escape, this online game sees our brave watermelon rolling and hopping across roads and creepy forests. What is the watermelon escaping from? An evil summer picnic? Is Gallagher in town? We shall never know.
Nevertheless, the watermelon is controlled by tapping the space bar. That is unless you’d prefer to use an actual watermelon controller, which can be done with an Arduino custom circuit and code, and requires you to slap the real watermelon to control your digital one.
Revolutionary Watermelon is brought to us by Space Backyard. The game is available for download here, and instructions on making your own watermelon controller can be found here.

Watermelon Pink Velvet Cake
Here’s your perfect slice of summer. Baker and cake artist, Yolanda Gampp of ‘How to Cake It,’ created this Watermelon Pink Velvet Cake.
Using layers of pink velvet cake for the innards, Yolanda then paints the outside to look just like the real thing. The best part is, the usually inedible rind is made of buttercream, and the pits are chocolate chips. So, no part will go uneaten.
See the story behind it in the video below.
